The Kingdom of Larestan County is a large, safe nation, remarkable for its irreverence towards religion and restrictive gun laws. The quiet, industrious population of 102 million Larestanians are highly moralistic and fiercely conservative, in the sense that they tend to believe most things should be outlawed. People who have good jobs and work quietly at them are lauded; others are viewed with suspicion.

The large, moralistic government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Education, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 47.5%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The sizeable but inefficient Larestan Countyian economy, worth 3.60 trillion Lar rials a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Basket Weaving, Furniture Restoration, and Pizza Delivery. State-owned companies are common. Average income is 35,278 Lar rials, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 2.0 times as much as the poorest.

Organ donation is compulsory, the government awards prizes to television shows featuring stereotype-breaking minority roles, fruit pickers with degrees in Asiatic cheetah psychology are a common sight, and the most penniless demographics have by far the highest number of researchers per capita. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Larestan County's national animal is the Asiatic cheetah, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Larestan County is ranked 232,449^th in the world and 22^nd in Middle East for Highest Unexpected Death Rate, scoring 29.42 on the Bus Surprisal Index.
